Sounds Of Change - Alex the Astronaut
Listen now
Description
Not so long ago Alex the Astronaut was studying maths and physics on a soccer scholarship at Long Island University, while testing out her songs at open mic nights around New York in between. Then in 2016 at just 21 she released her first song, Already Home, and Australia quickly fell in love with her way of calling out the wrongs of our society. Since then she’s perfectly crafted her personal experience into the unofficial anthem for marriage equality in Australia and delved into the complex process of writing someone else’s experience. To connect head to @torebelinthetimes on Instagram.
